Bright Golden Lights Lyrics

The little men stroke my head
The little men in my bed
They sucker me in for the evening

To the bright golden lights
I got to find my way out
I'm spinning around in my life
I got to get stoned or I can't go to sleep

The little men in my tears
The little men in my fears
They're pulling me out of the ether

I'm a burnt out firefly
My wings wont reach the sky
I'm a burnt out firefly, oh
Taking over body and mind

Swimming in circles staring at stars
Some satellite to beam me up
Light me a candle, I'm so sick of sleeping

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
